[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It never hurts to starts looking sooner rather than later, especially if you want a professional.[/quote] Why you say the nanny have to be professional? You just have lots loves for kids the other's thing come naturally,nanny daesn't need a degree for take care of the kids...[/quote] Why does she want a professional? Perhaps she wants someone who doesn't need constant direction to care for children. Perhaps she wants to hire someone who is experienced, someone who can help her through the learning curve that is raising children. Perhaps she wants a nanny who can help with homework and teach them (anything from grammatically correct English to another language or early reading if the child is ready). Perhaps she wants someone who knows how to make healthy food for young children. Perhaps she wants someone who knows how to juggle schedules for multiple children without minimizing any child's interest. Perhaps she wants someone who understands child development and is actively working with the child to grow and learn, rather than having the childcare provider just watch and wait. Perhaps she wants the peace of mind that her nanny is a professional who is unlikely to be overwhelmed or confused by anything the child does. Perhaps she wants to hire someone who has proven experience handling minor and/or major emergenices. There are tons of reasons, all of which go far beyond just loving a child. Loving a child doesn't have a thing to do with safety, socialization, education or anything of the myriad issues that a professional nanny will handle.[/quote]
